Lyrics

St. Stephen with a rose
In and out of the garden he goes
Country garland in the wind and the rain
Whereever he goes the people all complain

Stephen prospered in his time
Well he may and he may decline
Did it matter, does it now
Stephen would answer if he only knew how

Wishing well with a golden bell
Bucket hanging clear to hell
Hell half way twixt now and then
Stephen fill it up and lower down and lower down again

Lady finger dipped in moonlight
Writing "what for" across the morning sky
Sunlight splatters dawn with answers
Darkness shrugs and bids the day goodbye
Fleeting arrow sharp and narrow
What a lot of fleeting matters you have spurned
Several seasons with their treasons
Wrap the babe in scarlet colors, call it your own

Did he doubt or did he try
Answers aplenty in the bye and bye
Talk about your plenty, talk about your ills
One man gathers what another man spills

St. Stephen will remain
All he's lost he shall regain
Seashore washed in the suds and the foam
Been so long he's got to callin it home

Fortune comes a-crawlin, Calliope woman
Spinning that curious sense of your own
Can you answer? Yes I can
But what would be the answer to the answer man

High green chilly winds and windy vines in loops around the twisted shafts of lavender, they're crawling to the sun

Underfoot the ground is patched with climbing arms of ivy wrapped around the manzanita, stark and shiny in the breeze

Wonder who will water all the children of the garden as they sigh about the barren lack of rain and droop so hungry neath the sky

William Tell has stretched his bow till it won't stretch no furthermore and/or it may require a change that hasn't come before
